33-4 Preparing for Fiery Setup

WebTools

The Fiery supports Internet or intranet access with WebTools from Windows and Mac OS computers. To enable the use of WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:

Enable TCP/IP.

Set an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery.

Enable Web Services.

For more information, see Chapter 6.

You can set passwords to control access to WebTools features. If you do not specifically set these passwords, all users have access to all WebTools functions (see page 3-3). WebTools include Status, WebLink, WebDownloader, and WebSetup.

Status

The Status WebTool provides you with current information on the jobs processing and printing on the Fiery. It is not affected by passwords. For more information, see Chapter 8 of the Printing Guide.

WebLink

WebLink provides all users with a link to an address on the Internet. To change the WebLink Internet address, see page 6-3. This function requires the Administrator password, if one has been set (see “Passwords” on page 3-3).

NOTE: If you do not set the Administrator password, any user can change the WebLink address, which affects all users. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you set an Administrator password.

WebDownloader

WebDownloader allows you to print PostScript, EPS, PDF, and TIFF files directly to the Fiery without first opening the file in an application. It is not affected

by passwords.
